Product Description

Your day will start with a fascinating historic harbour tour taking in the sights of the Royal Navies warships in the dockyard, as well as HMS victory and HMS Warrior. You will then depart through the harbour entrance and blast off to see the Solent’s many forts (Palmerstons Follies). Now its time to hang on as your experienced skipper puts the boat through its paces and gives you a white knuckle, pulse racing ride, jumping the car ferry wakes and carrying out manoeuvres and tight turns at speeds up to 60 mph..This ends at the world famous Folly Inn in Cowes for lunch. Now it’s off to the Needles for some fantastic sightseeing and photo opportunities. Upon leaving the needles you will visit the tranquil harbour at Yarmouth for a cup of tea. Then prepare yourself for more wave surfing and high-speed manoeuvres on the way home. It’s an unbeatable way to truly experience the exhilaration of a RIB and the Solent, probably the busiest waterway in the UK.
